async_release(9)

✨ async_release — the kernel API manual, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is async_release(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the little function that handles QTEE async release requests 💅 like, the unsung hero of the TEE world, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

size_t async_release (struct qcomtee_object_invoke_ctx *oic , struct
qcomtee_async_msg_hdr *async_msg , size_t size );

look at her go 😭 three args, returns a size_t, main character energy fr fr.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• oic — the context used for the current invocation. like, the ~situationship~ context of whatever's being invoked rn 🫶
• async_msg — the async message for object release. this is the actual release message, the whole reason we're here 💖
• size — the size of the async buffer available. how much room you've got to work with, know your limits bestie 🌸
